ASSEMBLING THE WHEELS

Turn the radiator upside down on a safe and stable surface to avoid damaging the paint finish or the floor covering.
Place the wheeled feet on the radiator, placing the screws in a U shape between the most external elements on each end of the radiator.
Firmly tighten the wheeled feet on the radiator, screwing the washers onto the screws.
Note: only for model 2357FL (7 elements), adjust the front set of wheels on the lower part of the front panel with two screws, the other wheels are similar to those described above.
WARNING: only operate the appliance in the normal, vertical position, with the feet with the caster wheels mounted to the lower part (wheels on the lower part, controls on the upper part), any other position can create a dangerous situation.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Turning on and adjusting the radiator
Place the radiator in an upright position on a horizontal, stable, heat- resistant surface.
Make sure that there are no flammable products within a radius of at least one meter. Using the radiator in any other position can cause danger.
Turn the thermostat regulator anticlockwise to the MIN position and the power selector to the 0 positions.
Unwind the power cord and connect the radiator to the mains.
Turn the power selector to the desired position according to the heat required:

Low heat
Medium heat
High heat

Turn the thermostat regulator clockwise until it stops (MAX); the indicator light turns on.
When the room temperature has risen to a comfortable level, slowly turn the thermostat regulator anti-clockwise until the indicator light goes out.
To adjust the room temperature, turn the thermostat regulator clockwise to increase the temperature or anti-clockwise to decrease it. Thus, the radiator will try to maintain the ambient temperature at the desired level.

Turning off the radiator

To turn off the radiator, turn the thermostat control knob counterclockwise to the MIN position and the power level selector to the 0 positions. The lighted indicator will turn off.
Unplug the radiator from the power supply and let it cool.
NOTE: The lighted indicator will remain on only if the temperature is lower than the one established on the thermostat and means that the radiator is heating the room.

Tip-over protection

This radiator is protected with a safety switch that will automatically turn off the appliance when it falls over or is placed at an excessively horizontal angle. This helps prevent accidents. The radiator will resume operation when returned to a vertical position.

Overheating protection

This radiator is equipped with overheating protection that will automatically turn off the appliance in the event of severe overheating.
If this should occur, unplug the appliance, wait for around 30 minutes until it cools and remove any possible cause of overheating, such as something covering the radiator. Check for any damage to the appliance, power cord, and plug. If there are no damages, plug it in again and turn it on as described above. If the radiator still does not turn on, contact a technical assistance service.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before performing any kind of cleaning, turn the thermostat control knob counterclockwise to the MIN position and the power level selector to the 0 position.
Turn off the appliance, unplug it from the power supply, and let it cool.
Clean the outer surface of the radiator with a slightly damp cloth.
If the appliance is very dirty, use a mild cleaning agent.
Dry the appliance with a soft and dry cloth.
Do not allow water or other liquids to infiltrate the interior of the radiator, as this presents a risk of fire or short circuit.
Do not use detergents or abrasive cleaning products.
Store the radiator in a dry and clean place.

ANOMALIES AND REPAIR
